Storage Tips

The Turkey and Cheese Roll-Ups Recipe can last in the fridge for up to 3-4 days when stored in an airtight container. To store, wrap each roll-up tightly in plastic wrap or place in an airtight container.

If you want to freeze the roll-ups, store them individually in airtight containers or freezer bags with all the air removed. They can last in the freezer for up to one month.

To defrost, transfer the roll-ups from the freezer to the fridge and allow them to thaw for several hours or overnight. You can also defrost them in a microwave on low power for a few seconds at a time.

When ready to serve, assemble the roll-ups with the lettuce, tomato, avocado, cheese, and turkey slices. Secure with toothpicks and serve with your choice of dipping sauce or spread

Recipe Variations

1. Ham and Cheese Roll-Ups: Use sliced ham instead of turkey and any type of cheese desired. Add mustard or mayo for a tangier taste.

2. Veggie Roll-Ups: Replace the turkey with sliced veggies such as cucumbers, avocado, or bell peppers. Add hummus or cream cheese as the binding agent.

3. Italian Roll-Ups: Use sliced salami, pepperoni, and provolone cheese. Add sliced tomatoes and basil leaves for some fresh flavors.

4. BBQ Chicken Roll-Ups: Replace the turkey with thinly sliced grilled or shredded chicken. Add BBQ sauce and cheddar cheese for a tangy and smoky taste.

5. Greek Roll-Ups: Use sliced feta cheese, kalamata olives, and sliced gyro meat instead of turkey. Add diced tomatoes and tzatziki sauce for a Mediterranean twist.
